Looking for comfy on-ear

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 

I'm looking to replace my falling apart around the ear Bose with some new on on the ear headphones. After reading around here a while back I was made aware of how many people disliked Bose and the many complaints with them. So I'm trying to decide on a new pair with a price cap of $150, the goal is comfort.

 

Every around the ear headphone I have had didn't feel right, but very well padded on the ear headphones feel pretty good. I'm looking for something similar too Bose OE2. I did notice this thread which had headphones that look nearly identical, in fact that bag that comes with them looks like the same one that ships with Bose headphones. I have once tried on a pair of Sony headphones that were amazing, but can't remember the model.

 

Again comfort is the primary goal here, it can sound very plain like a $10 speak set as long as it's comfortable. I love the current leathery like pads used on Bose, I do not like regular cushion.

 

Uses

  • Gaming
  • Music
  • Movies/TV
  • General computing

 

Audio plugs

  • 3.5mm (up to 5.1 surround) x2
  • Digital
  • HDMI
  • USB 3.0

 

-Thank You

One I'm looking at is this, do you think it's a good headphone?

Heya,

 

Check out the AudioTechnica ESW9. Woodback. Lambskin. Very comfortable. The sound is warm and lush too.

 

Very best,
